The ISKCON Temple in Anantapur stands as a serene spiritual destination dedicated to Lord Krishna, radiating peace and devotion amidst the vibrant city. Established by the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, the temple is not just a place of worship but a center for cultural, spiritual, and community development.
Nestled along Somandepalli Road, the temple welcomes devotees and visitors into a calm, beautifully designed environment featuring traditional South Indian architecture blended with modern elements. The main sanctum houses enchanting deities of Sri Sri Radha Parthasarathi, surrounded by mesmerizing murals and devotional artwork that bring the stories of Krishna to life.
Every day, the temple hosts morning and evening aartis, bhajans, and spiritual discourses that inspire peace and devotion among visitors. On special occasions like Janmashtami, Rath Yatra, and Gaura Purnima, the temple comes alive with vibrant celebrations, music, and community feasts (prasadam).
The ISKCON Anantapur campus also includes a Govinda’s Restaurant, offering pure vegetarian cuisine, and a gift shop selling books, spiritual items, and devotional music. The atmosphere here provides a refreshing escape from daily life — a place to reflect, meditate, and connect with the divine.
